Cleveland, OH – Northeast Ohio residents can expect a brief burst of spring sunshine Wednesday before weekend rain returns to disrupt travel along I-90.
According to the National Weather Service, Cleveland will enjoy mostly sunny skies Wednesday with a high near 42°F. Winds will shift to the south overnight, bringing slightly warmer air and setting the stage for a mild Thursday with highs climbing to 55°F. However, drivers should brace for deteriorating conditions as early as Thursday night, when scattered showers begin to move into the region.
By Friday, rain becomes more widespread, with a 60% chance of showers in the afternoon and evening. Highs are expected to reach 59°F, but slick roads and reduced visibility may create hazardous travel on major routes like I-90 and I-71. Rain continues through Saturday, with a 70% chance of showers and highs near 53°F.
Sunday keeps the pattern going, with cloudy skies and another 70% chance of precipitation. Temperatures will hover in the mid-60s. Rain is likely again Monday, as spring kicks off with soggy momentum. Commuters and travelers are advised to check local forecasts and allow extra drive time.
While Cleveland gets a brief reprieve midweek, Ohioans should stay weather-aware as weekend plans may be disrupted. Prepare now by clearing storm drains, packing umbrellas, and staying up-to-date with alerts.
